He was a key player of Anyang KGC, leading his team to a 95-76 easy win against the lower-ranked LG Sakers (#6, 19-22). Anyang KGC confirms their top position in the standings. Their record at this point is 29 victories and 13 lost games. Sykes has a very solid season. In 42 games in South Korea he scored 13.8ppg. He also has 4.4apg and FGP: 55.5%.

Let's have closer look into His outlook:
(by Matthew Maurer for NBADraft.net in 2007)
Terry has a good amount of quickness to create separation from his defender. Athletically he is among the elite level athletes at his position in the college game. Physically he has all the tools one looks for in a defender. Long arms, quickness, and size Underrated ball handler who can take opposing players off the dribble. Great help defender who gets a number of shot blocks by rotating over.
Has always been a bit of an inconsistent player who goes through periods of streaky play. Has a tendency to gamble too much on steals which can leave him out of position giving his man the open look.
